The 7th through mid-9th Centuries from Michael Rabo's Chronicle. This is an extract from The Syriac Chronicle of Michael Rabo (Teaneck, N.J., 2014), pp. 445-579, translated by the great Syriac scholar, Matti Moosa. Moosa's accompanying footnotes compare and contrast other accounts of the major events of this period, which include the Byzantine-Sasanian wars, the end of the Sasanian dynasty in Iran, the birth and spread of Islam, as well as Church controversies and doctrines.  The period covered in the extract was chosen to correspond to the period covered in the works of the Armenian historians Sebeos, Ghewond, T'ovma Artsruni, and Kat'oghikos Yovhanne's Drasxanakerts'i, authors of the 7th-10th centuries. Bookmarked and uploaded by Robert Bedrosian in 148 searchable pdf pages.
